Effectiveness of Environmentally Friendly Mosquito Trap Contained Sugar Yeast Solution
Abstract: Environmentally
friendly mosquitoes trap using common daily materials used by community may
give hopes in reducing mosquitoes density. This study aims to determine the
effectiveness of environmentally friendly mosquitoes trap made from bottle
contained sugar yeast solution for reducing the number of trapped mosquitoes.
This study consist of two phases and quasi experimental design was used. Mann
Whitney test was used to determine the differences the number of trapped
mosquitoes indoor and outdoor. The result showed p value 0,000 which was lower
than ? value (0,05), so there was significant difference between the number of
indoor and outdoor trapped mosquitoes. The average Rank score of outdoor
mosquitoes trap (42,75) was more than indoor mosquitoes trap (18,25). We
concluded that the mosquitoes trapped which contained of sugar-yeast solution
was effective for trapping the mosquitoes especially outdoor .
